“Hard right” or “far right.” To these socialist propagandists, there is no such thing as “hard left” or “far left.” Actually, they seldom use the word “left” when describing political factions.

Will the Biden regime denounce this authoritarian act or take it as inspiration?

Hey Mind Guardian,

Is there just a right?

For that matter does the far left exist?

Groupthink mind guard BS.

At least they don’t hide it in their name.

Today’s Far Right is yesterday’s classic Liberalism.

They meant he is a Centralist as in Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.

The NAZI party, which stood for Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP, which translates into English as National Socialist German Worker’s Party is always described as “far right.” So, in this instance, what does
far right mean? Does this describe a circle where Left is directly connected to far right? Then, conservative would be on the opposite side of the circle? I’m so confused.

Funny how so many oppressive governments just abolish the government when the “elections” don’t go their way.

I guess Macron losing France’s African colonies to the Russians has the French establishment in a snit and Macron is gone.

The Right believes in a small central government, and many personal freedoms.
The Left believes in a large central government, and few personal freedoms.

It is obvious that the Nazis were leftists. But they wore fancy military uniforms. So I guess that makes them far-right.

From CNN: “This unprecedented defeat for the current government marks the end of a cycle, and Day 1 of the post-Macron era,” Bardella told a raucous audience at RN’s headquarters.

Good heavens! Dissolving parliament seems a bit harsh, but if the boss says so, bring in the tank cars of nitric acid...

Hold on there, it’s not even Monday morning there yet.

How can they know the results of an election so soon?

Isn’t it supposed to take weeks?

Not even one “water main” broke to stop counting?
